CARE TIPS

Soil: Provide well-draining soil for Rose Myrtle. It tolerates a wide range of soil types, including sandy, loamy, or clay soils, but good drainage is essential to prevent waterlogging.

Watering: Water Rose Myrtle regularly, especially during dry periods or when it's newly planted. Once established, it can tolerate some drought but performs best with consistent moisture. Water deeply when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch.

Fertilization: Fertilize Rose Myrtle sparingly, as it doesn't have high nutrient requirements. Apply a balanced fertilizer in spring, following the manufacturer's instructions for application rates.

Pruning: Prune Rose Myrtle to maintain its shape, remove dead or damaged branches, and promote bushy growth. Pruning is best done after flowering to avoid cutting off potential flower buds.

Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch, such as compost or wood chips, around the base of Rose Myrtle to help retain soil moisture, suppress weeds, and improve soil fertility. Leave a gap between the mulch and the plant's stems to prevent rotting.

Protection: Protect Rose Myrtle from frost if you're growing it in a region with cold winters. Consider covering it with a frost cloth or moving potted specimens indoors during extreme cold spells.

Pests and Diseases: Keep an eye out for common pests like aphids or scale insects, as well as fungal diseases like powdery mildew. Treat any infestations or infections promptly with appropriate measures, such as insecticidal soap or fungicides, following the instructions on the product label.
